    Same as Reggio. I won't book an appt without the WHOLE FAMILY there. What's the point then?! I want to see how the whole family interacts with one another.

    I agree with ValerieeMC, I would just keep the answers as basic as possible and maybe not engage in a lot of eye contact, sending a message of a little dis interest but keep professional at the same time, be thankful that they came but when they leave maybe give a sure "I will let you know if I have room" and maybe give a call a week later with.."I'm sorry, hte spot has been filled, it was very nice meeting you though" and inform them you will be in touch if anything might open. I have learned in this job, you def shouldn;t burn ANY bridge, although you may never take them in, you still don't want negative talk about your business floating around town, just be pleasant and move on to the next.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
